I am Feng Jun

Chapter 159 159. Don't Call Me Miss!
"Slave"

Shen Ci, who has read the history books and knows how the former Yu died and how the Mu Dynasty ended the slave society, did not have any special emotions, but the smile on his lips gradually became indifferent.

"Miss, why don't you explain more clearly?"

Shen Ci looked down at Le Chang from above, and the indifferent smile on her lips made her tremble.

do not!
Don't call me Miss!
I am afraid!
I'm just a little guard!
When I can resist, I will try my best to resist, just like just now.

But now, I am really powerless!

This young man with no inner energy can't even handle it.

Not to mention that there are Yu Xiaoyao and Five Gentlemen behind him watching over him!
And now, as long as she moves a little, or even breathes a little harder, the crossbow bolts on her body will vibrate slightly, and the pain is excruciating.

full of despair
"You, what else do you want to hear?"

Le Chang's voice trembled from the pain, which gradually made her numb.

"Sister, tell me everything you know."

Le Chang's pupils shrank, everything.
Although I know this is tantamount to betrayal.

But she doesn't want to die
So, with a strong desire to survive, she told all she knew.

"My name is Le Chang. I was a hunter in Luoshan five years ago. I live in Lejia Village on the outskirts of Luoshan near Lucheng. Both my mother and father died, and I was the only one living with my young sister.

Because my family owed debts to the landlord’s family in the village, I was worried that my little sister would stay at home alone, so I took her to the mountains to hunt together.

There are no particularly vicious prey in Suoxingluo Mountain, and my martial arts are not bad. I hunt some prey on weekdays, gather some herbs to resell in the city, but I can survive with my sister.

Until one day four years ago, I took my sister a little deeper into Luoshan, just a little bit, and we were robbed here together."

Speaking of which, everyone present could hear full of regret from Le Chang's trembling tone.

"At that time, there were not so many slaves here, and my sister and I should be regarded as the first batch of people who were robbed.

At that time, hundreds of women in their 20s were kidnapped together with us. Most of them I didn't know, but some of them I had seen in the city were beggars at the city gate.

We were all shackled and branded on our collarbones. We didn’t have bronze mirrors at that time, and the water was muddy. We couldn’t see what we had become.

But we can see other people. I saw the burnt word slave on my sister's collarbone, and my sister cried and said that it was the same on my collarbone.

When I was young, I heard people from the older generation say that it seemed to be the imprint on the slaves in the previous dynasty. With so many of us, we became slaves hiding in the depths of Luoshan, and were forced to mine the stone mines in the mountain. . "

Le Chang's pupils were slack, without the slightest focus, recalling those gloomy years.

"I didn't even know what kind of mine it was at the beginning. I could only follow the orders of those people and mine numbly. From morning to night, from night to morning, I only had three hours of rest every day. in mining.

Slaves must hand over a sufficient amount of ore every day, otherwise they will be punished, punched and kicked, whipped and fired, just follow the wishes of those people. I also thought about running, thinking about resisting, and no one thought about it. Life of a slave isn't it?

But I also know that I can't be reckless, my sister is still young, I have to act cautiously, so I have been forbearing. "

Le Chang's voice gradually became trembling, as if remembering something extremely frightening.

"When I was holding back, other slaves couldn't help but resist first. Their plan was very thorough, and there were a lot of people involved. Then...then, those people were all disabled."

Yes, not dead, disabled
Le Chang said tremblingly, that terrible memory and the pain that was imposed on her now made her whole body twitch gradually, her fingertips were slightly white, and bright red blood dripped down her fingertips, mixed with her His weak voice became more sinister. .

"In this long tunnel, all those people were stopped. After the escaped people were captured, they were all taken to the quarry. Those guards took those people away in front of all the slaves They were scrapped one by one.

According to their wishes, either their arms or their legs were broken, and the iron rods as thick as their arms knocked on their flesh and bones inch by inch.

As he talked, Le Chang became more and more desperate.

"But no matter what, none of those people died. They were locked in cages more than one meter high and hung in the middle of the quarry. Every day, they were only given enough water and food to survive, but Never let them out again.

Regardless of wind, sun, frost or rain, they are naked|naked|closed in a cage and hung there, warning us all, dare to run, this is the end!
And those who died hanging in cages for a long time were incinerated and their ashes were scattered in this mine. When we dig mines, we will be covered with dust, but I can't tell the difference. Is it the debris of the stone or the ashes of those people.

From then on, I didn't dare to have the intention of running away. In fact, it would be fine if I was alone, but I still have a younger sister. I can't let her hang up in such a humiliating way after being crippled! "

Le Chang immediately said in resignation.

"At that time, I thought, slaves should be slaves. It's just mining. It's just a little effort. You can also manage food here. Although it's not that good, but at least you won't starve to death. Moreover, if you dig a lot, There will also be some rewards, for example, good food and good food, good wine and good meat, or a lively man.

There were also some people who were taken out of the quarry, where they went, and I didn’t know if they were still alive at the time, but since then, I have been digging conscientiously with my sister. I have dug a lot, but because If you want to give some to your sister evenly, it won't be very good.

Until a year later, someone bullied my younger sister while I was away. After I found out, I retaliated and went back. The third sister, oh, her name is Geng Huan, so she took a fancy to my force and took me out of the quarry. field.

Only then did I know that those stones were saltpeter, and this kind of stone can be used to make ice cubes and gunpowder. I saw those people who were taken away outside, but only a part of them.

They just changed places and continued to be slaves. Some went to the ice workshop, some went to the fire workshop. They all did the roughest and heaviest work, but the conditions were slightly better than those in the mine. .

And I became the guard here under the advice of the third sister. I used a special potion to fade the brand, but the scar was still left. "

Saying that, Le Chang pulled down her collar weakly, revealing the large dark red scar on her collarbone, which was more shocking than the few long and narrow scars on her face.
